2012 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs
So I guess this will be the official thread for the playoffs since we don't have one yet. We don't do anything for it like with the NFL playoffs, correct? This is usually just for discuss if I recall.
I'm very excited about the Flyers and Penguins first round matchup. This should be the most intense series in the Eastern Conference in the first round. I think that the Flyers, Penguins, Bruins, and Rangers are the four teams that have a chance at contending for the cup this year. It's strange that top four teams in the East were all from the Atlantic Division, although Boston did tie New Jersey in the end. I guess that just means that most of the Eastern Conference was pretty weak this year.
The Western Conference should have some pretty tight matchups between Detroit vs. Nashville and St. Louis vs. San Jose. I know that San Jose isn't as good this year, but they showed some resilience beating the Stars and Kings in two back to back home and home series. I'd keep my eye out for them. Obviously Vancouver will get a lot of attention from most of you, and they did pull through and get the president's trophy once again. Should be an interesting playoff this year.
